Our Work

Investment BankingServices

During 2011 Intellecap raised USD 30 million

for Bandhan, a Micro Finance Institution (MFI)

in India. The International Finance Corporation

(IFC) was the sole investor in this transaction

and it was IFCs largest investment in Indias

microfinance sector.

Bandhan is currently the largest Indian MFI

with an outstanding loan portfolio of USD 660

million. The company provides loans, micro-pensions and remittances services

to 3.8 million poor and low-income people across 18 states, including Low

Income States such as Bihar, Uttar Pradesh and Jharkhand where poverty levels

are highest.

Waterlife provides safe water to underserved

populations in rural India in an affordable and

sustainable manner. In 2011 Intellecap raised

USD 4 million for Waterlife from Matrix Partners

and Aavishkaar Micro Venture Capital Fund, two

experienced venture capital investors.

Since the investment was completed Waterlife increased the number of itsinstallations from 5 to 137, grew its clients from 1 million to over 2.6 million

and expanded into 7 Indian states. In 2012 Waterlife was selected as one of the

winners of the G20 Challenge on Inclusive Business Innovation.

Intellecap analyzed the potential of

solar off-grid lighting in 7 Asian markets

India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Pakistan,

Indonesia, Cambodia and Philippines for the IFC. This analysis included

identifying challenges to scale and opportunities to catalyze private sector activity.

To complete this assignment, we interviewed over 150 solar energy experts andpractitioners across Asia. The results and recommendations were published and

disseminated widely by IFC.

Intellecaps work informed the design and launch of IFCs Lighting India

program that aims to provide clean, safe and affordable off-grid lighting to two

million people living in rural India by 2015.

Intellecap identified opportunities for private

sector companies to help the urban poor build

resilience to the expected impact of climate

change. To execute this assignment, we identified

best practices, business models and potential

private sector partners across South Asia.

Our on-going work with the Foundation includes supporting several privatesector companies and catalyzing investor interest in this new and innovative area.
